摘要:
该初中英语课件聚焦“如何成为更好的学习者”,通过Warming Up引导学生列举成功学习者特质,如专注、坚持等,进而以调查项目为主线,借助语言框架(如“I think... is important because...”)和有用短语搭建学习支架,帮助学生完成评分、小组合作及成果展示。
其亮点在于融合语言能力与思维品质培养,通过个人评分(如Step 1对学习方法1-10分评价)、小组平均计算(如“scores are 8,9,7,average is 8”)及图表展示,提升分析评价能力。结合反思问题(如“Which methods are good for you?”)发展学习能力,学生能在实践中掌握表达技巧,教师可通过结构化活动高效推进教学。

At the end of the class, we are able to:
1. learn about different learning methods and what makes a good learner by discussing and rating them in a survey.
2. use sentence patterns like “I think... is important because... ”and “The highest score goes to... ” to share opinions and present group results.
3. give a short presentation in groups to show the survey results and share what we’ve learned about becoming a better learner.
Learning Objectives
Warming Up
Let’s talk.
What
makes them good at
learning?
Think about a successful learner you know — maybe yourself, a classmate, or a friend.
focus for a long time
never give up even when it’s hard
take
good notes
in class
review key points after class
study with friends
Let’s share one more quality or habit of a good learner.
ask questions in class
learn from mistakes
practise every day
stay positive
find what works
All the ideas you shared are great — but everyone has different opinions.
Let’s begin our project: Carry out a survey on learning!
Know your tasks
Step 1: √ Rate the Methods (1–10)
Step 2: 💡 Add your own ideas
Step 3: 👥 Group Work — compare & average
Step 4: 📈 Create and Present a Chart
Let’s go through the steps — Step by step!
Carry out the tasks
4a What are the important things to do in order to become a successful learner? Rate each method from 1 to 10 (1 = least important, 10 = most important).
Step 1
____ being able to focus well
____ believing in yourself
____ having deep motivation
____ not giving up
____ reviewing lessons
____ being well-organized
____ taking notes
____ studying with others
____ reflecting on learning
____ studying all the time
Language Frame:
I think ______ is very important because ______.
For me, ______ is more important than ______.
I would give ____ a ___ out of 10.
I don’t think ____ is that important because ______.
Useful phrases:
being able to focus well
believing in yourself
having deep motivation
not giving up
reviewing lessons
being well-organized
taking notes
studying with others
reflecting on learning
studying all the time
I think being able to focus well is very important because if you can’t focus, you won’t understand anything. I would give it a 9 out of 10. For me, studying all the time is not that important. If you study too much without a break, you’ll get tired. I give it a 4.
Sample
4b What are some other methods that you think are important?
Step 2
Language Frame:
Another important method is __________.
I also think __________ is helpful because __________.
In my opinion, a good learner should __________.
Useful phrases:
ask questions
learn from mistakes
stay curious
teach others
make a plan
practise every day
stay positive
find what works for you
Sample
Another important method is asking questions. If you don’t understand something, you should ask your teacher or classmates.
I also think learning from mistakes is helpful because mistakes help us improve.
4c Work in groups. Compare your results and work out an average score for each method.
Step 3
Language Frame:
I gave __________ a ____. What about you?
So our scores for __________ are ____, ____, and ____.
The average score is (____ + ____ + ____) ÷ 3 = ____.
We all agree that __________ is important.
Some of us think _______ is more important than ________.
Useful phrases:
compare scores
work out the average

another key point is...

most of us think
Sample
I gave taking notes an 8. What about you?
Me too — I gave it a 9. And I gave it a 7. So our scores are 8, 9, and 7. The average is (8+9+7) ÷ 3 = 8. We all agree that taking notes is quite important.
4d Create a chart to show your group’s results. Display it and explain the results to the class. Below is an example.

Reflecting
BIG question What makes a good learner?
Section B How can we get better at learning
Section A How do we learn?
It is not just about what we need to learn, but how we learn.
A good learner is not someone who never struggles, but someone who keeps trying, learns from mistakes, and finds what works for them.
Summary of the unit
Different subjects need different methods, and good learners always find ways to get better.
